File Information Research shows worker output is not a constant. As a farmer or labor contractor you can play an important role in shaping work outcomes. My intention with this book is to present sound theory and practices hopefully leading to a better understanding of worker performance and output—and improved management of human resources on the farm. The emphasis of this publication is in areas most critical to the productivity of personnel on your farm.
